I bought a Razer Tartarus, but as I mentioned elsewhere I'm very unhappy with the switch from four distinct arrow keys to a single hat-switch. I used to map "Auto-Run" to "Up Arrow", but I can't do that anymore since it's far too easy to accidentally press a little bit of "Up Arrow" on the hat-switch when trying to strafe right or left.
I really ought to write a review on Amazon or something...

I'm installing a computer in the bathroom... or maybe it would be better to just install a bathroom under my computer. Wait, is this thread visible to the public? :O
But more seriously, I suppose I'll have to get a new headset too, let me know how that G430 works out. My mouse sometimes goes haywire too, suppose I'll have to update that too, oye.
I remember way back when WoW came out and it was a *thing* to buy a mouse with more than 3 buttons.

We actually had a guildmember in wow who cut a hole in his chair and raided with a bucket underneath for 40 man raids back in vanilla.
Now, I'm not suggesting you go that far, you can get bedpans and whatnot at your local store and just empty them during server downtime and all that.

I'm going to get myself a really nice wireless gaming headset. Nothing drives me up the wall faster than getting up from my computer and having my headphones yanked off my head.
I was looking at something from Logitech since I have a G700s mouse already and it is lightyears better than the Razer peice of crap I had before. I have yet to do much reasearch on the matter yet though. Any ideas?

On my n52, I have occasionally mapped autorun to the button right above the d-pad, but more often put in on Caps Lock, 'cause that's CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL.

umm...
I'm going to try to run PFO on my laptop(*) without any new fancy hardware.
I did however put cabled ethernet in 5 rooms(**) in my house, if that counts.
(*) but it's a proper laptop. Except for carrying or running off battery.
(**) but not including bathrooms. Only high-speed wifi there.

I picked up a razer taipan a while back. It's a pretty fantastic ambidextrous mouse. Extremely comfortable. I currently have a gen 2 logitech g15 keyboard, but I'm looking to upgrade that this summer. Will also probably bump up my ram a little bit. Not that I need any of this stuff. But I wants it.

While truth resists simplicity, there definitely is something to the warnings about wireless signals rightnexttoyourhead interfering with the health and well-being of your brain and its electric signals. The studies regulatory bodies use to clear products that say there are no short or long term changes in the brain from it are conducted by the producers of the goods they want to sell, and don't observe the long term.
Something to consider in the realm of things more important than gaming.
This concludes today's public service announcement.

Nihimon, I would tend to agree. My keyboard is wireless, but it is solar powered, so as long as it gets a decent amount of light exposure, it will never run out of battery!
None of which matters if a dingo eats your baby dog eats your Bluetooth dongle.

Ugh, this made me think of that WoW South Park episode again.
